Preheat your oven to 375°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.

On a lightly floured surface, gently roll out the thawed puff pastry sheet slightly to about 1/8-inch thickness. Trim any uneven edges. Cut the pastry lengthwise into 6 narrow strips, each about 2 inches wide.

Arrange the thinly sliced apple crescents along one long edge of each puff pastry strip, slightly overlapping each slice. The rounded part of the apple should extend slightly above the pastry edge.

Sprinkle 1/4 cup of the granulated sugar generously over the apple slices on each pastry strip.

Fold the bottom edge of the puff pastry strip up over the lower portion of the apple slices, encasing them. Carefully roll up each pastry strip from one end to form a rose-like spiral shape.

Place the formed apple roses onto the prepared baking sheet. In a small bowl, combine the remaining 2 tablespoons of granulated sugar with the ground cinnamon. Sprinkle this mixture evenly over the top of each apple rose.

Bake for 25 minutes, or until the pastry is golden brown and flaky, and the apples are tender. If the tops brown too quickly, you may loosely tent them with aluminum foil.

Remove from the oven and let cool slightly on the baking sheet before serving. These are delicious warm or at room temperature.
